Nancy Falkow

Biography

Unfortunately for Nancy Falkow, the mere mention of delicate female singer-songwriter types whispering through heartfelt ballads created on acoustic guitars is likely to send eyes rolling and inspire snickers. Luckily for Falkow, she doesn't fit into that image, even if her guitar is unplugged and her vocals might sometimes drift wispily over her chords. These pretty songs veer from quiet numbers to blustering, vocally overpowering, '60s-influenced tunes that conjure up images of white go-go boots and mini-dresses. As Falkow herself states, it's a bit like, "Lilith with an edge."
